Thanks to all for responding.

On the park light, I think picking one up at a junk yard is my best bet. I don't think they manufacture the original socket any longer and I don't think the guy's I've been working with would do anything for free. I'm not sure what the retrofit would entail and not sure I want to attempt it myself.

On the mirror, I may try to re-attach the spring myself - I'll bet there's more than one place to hook it up.

About the service bulletin on the lamp socket, if anyone can find it or point me in the right direction, I'd love to revisit the issue with the dealer.

I've been working with Park Place Motor Cars in Bedford Texas.

Still looking for a good indy shop - (that forum hasn't yeilded what I'm looking for).

thanks again
